IE3 efficiency with robust flameproof capability reduces energy consumption and operational costs across long shift cycles in mining environments, improving overall productivity. The Exdb flameproof protection paired with IP66 ingress protection ensures safe operation in hazardous zones and washdown-ready applications, decreasing downtime due to environmental exposure. A cast-iron frame size 225 delivers durable mechanical integrity, while bearings 6313/C3 with 6312/C3 NDE enable long service life in tough underground conditions. IMB5 IM3001 mounting simplifies retrofits and new installs by leveraging common industry mounting standards, minimizing installation time and spare-part complexity. The D-connection configuration with 500 V/50 Hz supply supports straightforward electrical integration and consistent performance across mining fleets. Real-world IE3 performance data (90.1–90.8% efficiency across full/partial loads) translates to measurable energy savings and predictable operating costs.

FAQs
ABB 3GJM224210-BEK uses a D connection configuration with a 500 V, 50 Hz three-phase supply and eight-pole design. It is designed for standard mining drives and aligns with IMB5 IM3001 mounting, frame size 225, and a 3-phase installation approach. This compatibility minimizes wiring changes and supports rapid integration into existing fleets.
At 50 Hz, IE Class data shows Full Load efficiency of 90.1% (100%), with 75% load at 90.8% and 50% load at 90.2%. At 60 Hz, Full Load efficiency is 90.2%, with 75% load at 90.3% and 50% load at 89.0%. These figures confirm reliable energy performance across operating points in mining duty cycles.
Yes. The motor is Exdb flameproof protected, IP66 rated for dust and water ingress, and features ICFL insulation. It is designed for hazardous-area mining installations where explosion protection is essential, providing safe operation in underground mines while maintaining performance and reliability.
The motor uses IMB5 IM3001 mounting with a cast-iron frame (225) and bearings 6313/C3 (driven) and 6312/C3 (NDE). This combination supports robust, maintenance-friendly installation, straightforward retrofits, and interchangeability with similar ABB mining motors, minimizing downtime and spare-part complexity.
The IE3 efficiency class reduces energy costs over the motor’s life, contributing to a lower total cost of ownership in mining operations. Combined with Exdb protection and IP66 ingress protection, maintenance intervals are predictable and downtime is reduced in hazardous areas, delivering faster payback through reliability, longer service intervals, and easier spares management.
